GRESHAM POLICE DEPARTMENT TO OFFER SUICIDE PREVENTION WORKSHOP SERIES - 04/20/26

GRESHAM, Ore.– The Gresham Police Department’s Police and Community Together (PACT) team is offering a series of suicide prevention workshops centered around Question, Persuade, Refer (GFR) training. This evidence-based training equips adults to recognize warning signs of suicide in people across a spectrum of age groups and how to respond with confidence.

 

The series will feature three total workshops hosted in the Rockwood Public Safety Building at 675 NE 181st Ave in Gresham. These sessions include:

“Anyone who has experienced the loss of a loved one knows how devastating a suicide can be to our families and our community,” says Gresham Police Chief Travis Gullberg. “This training will help us remain vigilant and aware of the signs, so we might be better positioned to help anyone who may be struggling.”
